2 out of 5 stars In search of TRs

It rained 8-10 hours last night and I really didn't want to lead through the wetness. We TR'd Katzenjammer. It's a nice climb, I think it's harder than a 5.7. I try to avoid the obvious line, just to make it harder. I suppose if you used the cracks, flakes etc it would be closer to a 7.
